I have a deep respect for people's privacy. I can be very close to someone for years and still not know everything about them, and I never feel the need to ask. And It's not like I don't care. I believe that if someone hasn't chosen to share something, it isn't my place to ask!!
Highly selective people aren't socially awkward. They're INTENSELY observant. They notice the smallest energy shifts, malicious intentions, subtle animosity, quiet resentment, and performative friendships. That’s why they master loneliness, remain private, and live quietly.
